“Also, don’t skip breakfast because it’s too much trouble.”
…
Qin Shuwan listened carefully throughout the whole process and nodded in agreement, but she was actually crying in her heart.
It was not until the departure time came and the driver urged him to leave that Lu Donglin reluctantly got off the bus, looking back every few steps. His eyes and expression were like he was performing a farewell of life and death.
Looking at his back as he got off the car, Qin Shuwan was also a little infected. She stuck her head out of the window and reminded him to pay attention to safety.
After he could no longer see his shadow, Lu Donglin walked towards his workplace alone.
The car drove away for a distance before Qin Shuwan calmed down. Although reunion is joyful, separation is also sad.
An older woman next to Qin Shuwan teased, "You just got married not long ago, right?"
Looking at the expression on her face that was almost thread-like, she was sure that she was still a newlywed couple.
Qin Shuwan smiled politely and didn't say much.
The old lady thought she was shy and continued, "You guys, the novelty hasn't worn off yet, you can't wait to stick together every day.
Wait two or three years and you will see that you may be sick and lying in bed, and no one will even look at you.
When the novelty hasn't worn off, even if you have a lot of flaws in his eyes, you are still the best.
Once the novelty wears off, even if it's an advantage, he will find fault with you and find a lot of reasons to annoy you.
This is the fate of us women! We serve men, take care of the elderly, manage the household, and bear children, but in the end, we end up getting sick from exhaustion. What else can we expect?
Qin Shuwan just listened quietly without saying anything. Different personal choices, different personal positions, different personal persistence, the life they live out will definitely be different.
It's like someone is just mud in the pond, but you insist on helping them climb up the wall. Someone is just salted fish lying there comfortably, but you insist on turning them over. Not only will you not get any benefit, but you will also disrupt their peace.
This lady said this, it shows that her mindset is fixed. If you tell her now that women can be independent and divorce if they can't make it, she will just sneer at you.
Seeing that Qin Shuwan was not impatient and was listening attentively, the lady became more interested in talking.
"Judging from the work clothes your boyfriend is wearing, he's either a temporary worker or someone with a stable job. Does he give you his entire salary every month?"
Qin Shuwan smiled and said nothing, but the old lady thought that Qin Shuwan was hiding something, and the smile on her face became even bigger.
"Hey, these men have this bad habit. They are very tight with the money they earn, but they don't think about it. If we women were not behind them to take care of the housework, take care of the elderly and take care of the children, would they be able to work properly?
Aren’t the little wages they earn all spent on that family?
But people are still wary of us, thinking we took the money back to our parents’ home or spent it on ourselves.”
The old lady is from the town, and her husband works in the county. Every month, she comes to ask for her salary at a certain time, and every time she asks for her salary, they always quarrel and fight.
"I'm telling you, you better be smart. While the novelty is still there, you should grasp what you should grasp and hold on to what you should hold on to. Otherwise, once the novelty wears off, you'll get nothing.
I just told you my experience because I think you and I are compatible.
If you don’t grow up smart, you will be the one who suffers.”
Qin Shuwan smiled and nodded, "Well, thank you, Auntie. I feel a little carsick and I want to rest for a while."
After that, he closed his eyes, leaned his head against the car window, and listened to what the old lady said.
If two people need all kinds of calculations to live together for a long time, then this kind of marriage is not worth having. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
